Multimorbidity and out-of-pocket expenditure on medicine in Europe
Background Many European Health Systems are implementing or increasing levels of cost-sharing for medicine in response to the growing constrains on public spending on health despite their negative impact on population health due to delay in seeking care. Objective This study aims to examine the relationships between multimorbidity (two or more coexisting chronic diseases, CDs), complex multimorbidity (three or more CDs impacting at least three di…
The effect of health insurance and socioeconomic status on women’s choice in birth attendant and place of delivery across regions in Indonesia
BACKGROUND: Evidence suggests that women gave birth in diverse types of health facilities and were assisted by various types of health providers. This study examines how these choices are influenced by the Indonesia national health insurance programme (Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional (JKN)), which aimed to provide equitable access to health services, including maternal health. METHODS: Using multinomial logit regression models, we examined patterns an…
Multimorbidity and out-of-pocket expenditure for medicines in China and India
INTRODUCTION: Using nationally representative survey data from China and India, this study examined (1) the distribution and patterns of multimorbidity in relation to socioeconomic status and (2) association between multimorbidity and out-of-pocket expenditure (OOPE) for medicines by socioeconomic groups.

Family-Level Multimorbidity among Older Adults in India
Most evidence on multimorbidity is drawn from an individual level assessment despite the fact that multimorbidity is modulated by shared risk factors prevailing within the household environment. Our study reports the magnitude of family-level multimorbidity, its correlates, and healthcare expenditure among older adults using data from the Longitudinal Ageing Study in India (LASI), wave-1. LASI is a nationwide survey amongst older adults aged ≥45 …
Multimorbidity and Complex Multimorbidity in India
Complex multimorbidity refers to the co-occurrence of three or more chronic illnesses across >2 body systems, which may identify persons in need of additional medical support and treatment. There is a scarcity of evidence on the differences in patient outcomes between non-complex (≥2 conditions) and complex multimorbidity groups. We evaluated the prevalence and patient outcomes of complex multimorbidity and compared them to non-complex multimorbi…

Health Service Utilization and Out-of-Pocket Expenditure Associated with the Continuum of Disability in Vietnam
Reducing the burden of disability is key priority in many countries where the population is aging rapidly. The relationships between disability, health expenditure and economic burden are complex, particularly when disability is recognized as a continuum rather than a dichotomous phenomenon. However, these complex relationships are not adequately addressed in national health policy and management plans in Vietnam. This paper examines the economic…
Association of Oral Health with Multimorbidity among Older Adults
India is witnessing an increase in the prevalence of multimorbidity. Oral health is related to overall health but is seldom included in the assessment of multimorbidity. Hence, this study aimed to estimate the prevalence of oral morbidity and explore its association with physical multimorbidity using data from Longitudinal Ageing Study in India (LASI). LASI is a nationwide survey amongst adults aged ≥ 45 years conducted in 2018. Descriptive analy…
Temporal trends and variation in out-of-pocket expenditures and patient cost sharing
Reducing out-of-pocket expenditure and patient cost sharing is required to improve financial protection from illness, especially for those with those with chronic conditions and reside in less developed regions in China. Ongoing monitoring of financial protection using data from various sources is warranted
The association between mental-physical multimorbidity and disability, work productivity, and social participation in China
Mental-physical multimorbidity poses substantial negative health and economic effects on individuals, health systems, and societies. More research that addresses the challenges of mental-physical multimorbidity is needed to inform the development of interventions that can be applied to the workplace and the wider community in China
Is there an association between public spending on health and choice of healthcare providers across socioeconomic groups in India? - Evidence from a national sample
Physical multimorbidity, health service use, and catastrophic health expenditure by socioeconomic groups in China
BACKGROUND: Multimorbidity, the presence of two or more mental or physical chronic non-communicable diseases, is a major challenge for the health system in China, which faces unprecedented ageing of its population. Here we examined the distribution of physical multimorbidity in relation to socioeconomic status; the association between physical multimorbidity, health-care service use, and catastrophic health expenditures; and whether these associa…
Impact of Indonesia’s national health insurance scheme on inequality in access to maternal health services
BACKGROUND: (JKN), on access to maternal health services by sociodemographic status. METHODS: Using data from the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) on women with live births in 2016-2017, we conducted propensity score matching (PSM) analysis to evaluate the association of JKN enrollment on the following maternal health care utilisation outcomes: (1) at least four antenatal care (ANC4+) visits; (2) ANC4+ visits and received essen…
Progress towards reducing sociodemographic disparities in breastfeeding outcomes in Indonesia
There were considerable improvements in breastfeeding practices in Indonesia during a period of sustained policy reform to regulate breastfeeding and community support of breastfeeding, but these were not distributed uniformly across socioeconomic, occupation and geographic subgroups. Concerted efforts are needed to further reduce inequities in breastfeeding practice through both targeted and population-based strategies
Patients with more comorbidities have better detection of chronic conditions, but poorer management and control
Patients with more comorbidities have better diagnosis of chronic conditions, but this does not translate into better management and control of these conditions. Patients with multiple NCDs are high users of health services and are at an increased risk of adverse health outcomes. Hence, improving their access to care is a priority for healthcare systems
Implications of multimorbidity patterns on health care utilisation and quality of life in middle-income countries
BACKGROUND: Past studies have demonstrated how single non-communicable diseases (NCDs) affect health care utilisation and quality of life (QoL), but not how different NCD combinations interact to affect these. Our study aims to investigate the prevalence of NCD dyad and triad combinations, and the implications of different NCD dyad combinations on health care utilisation and QoL. METHODS: Our study utilised cross-sectional data from the WHO SAGE …
Impact of the NHS Health Check on inequalities in cardiovascular disease risk
BACKGROUND: We assessed impacts of a large, nationwide cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk assessment and management programme on sociodemographic group inequalities in (1) early identification of hypertension, type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD); and (2) management of global CVD risk among high-risk individuals. METHODS: We obtained retrospective electronic medical records from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink for a rando…
Does charging different user fees for primary and secondary care affect first-contacts with primary healthcare? A systematic review
The inverse equity hypothesis
BACKGROUND: It is uncertain whether the inverse equity hypothesis-the idea that new health interventions are initially primarily accessed by the rich, but that inequalities narrow with diffusion to the poor-holds true for cancer screening in low and middle income countries (LMICs).This study examines the relationship between overall coverage and economic inequalities in coverage of cancer screening in four middle-income countries. METHODS: Second…

Restoring and enhancing rare and threatened habitats under agri-environment agreements
Using Landscape Characteristics for Targeting Habitat Conservation and Restoration
Ancient semi-natural deciduous woodland is a rare and threatened habitat cited by the European Union's Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC). Current protection of this endangered habitat in the UK takes the form of site-specific reserve designations but, if the habitat is to be conserved and enhanced, a landscape-scale selective targeting system is required. In the absence of suitable species data, physical attributes of habitat patches are used as sur…
